3 Software
3.1 Location and Startup
By default, the parSYNC® software base folder is set to C:\parSYNC. Within this folder, are the sub-
folders for the:
configuration files, C:\parSYNC\Config
software licenses, C:\parSYNC\License
software executable, C:\parSYNC\Software
recorded test data, C:\parSYNC\TestData
user guides, C:\parSYNC\UserGuide
The base folder path can be as per user choice; however, the sub-folder names are fixed. Thus, for
example, if the base folder is set to D:\level1\level2\foldername, the configuration files sub-folder path
will be D:\level1\level2\foldername\Config. The base folder on your hard drive must be same as the
base folder in the parSYNC software Config > Test Setup tab.
We advise keeping the base folder as default unless there's a good reason to move it. Also, make
sure all users of the computer have full access to the base folder.
Start-up Application
The parSYNC® unit must be turned ON and running before starting up the operational software. Push the
Main power button on the unit and verify that the blue LED surrounding the power button is lit and that
the sampling pump is running (audible noise).
On the laptop controller, click the shortcut link on the Taskbar or Desktop that points to the parSYNC®
application executable file. The executable file in the "Software" is typically named parSYNC_**.exe where
the ** is a placeholder for software version number and date. For example, the executable could be
named parSYNC_190903a.exe
